Ron,
I am so sorry for the loss of Michael. He was such fun to be around and always loved life. His love for the Buckeyes and Steelers, the holidays and family will sorely be missed by all. I still remember the first time that he carved a pumpkin with Tom Jr. I had never seen anyone carve ears before, but Michael said all pumpkins needed ears. It became a tradition with the two of them and we still laugh about it to this day.
Please know that we are still a family and are all here for you, at all times.
Debbie and family

Mike and I had a lot of fun over the years, I still have a Danger Brothers shirt he gave me and to this day I can't hear a Frank Sinatra song without thinking of him. The last few times I saw him was when he was at First Community Village at the same time as my Mom and we still had some laughs there. I am sorry to hear of his passing but grateful that he is out of pain and in a far better place now.
